Copyright and takedown

Last updated

Moud hosts games and posts made by its users. We respect intellectual property and remove content that infringes it when we are told about it, as a hosting provider under article 6 of the French LCEN and the EU Digital Services Act.

Sending a notice#

Use the notice form. You can also write to contact@epistudio.fr with the subject "Copyright notice". A notice must include:

  1. your name, address and email, or for a company its name, legal form, registered office and the person acting for it
  2. the work you own, or a link to it
  3. the exact address of the game page, forum post or file on Moud that infringes it, and what part infringes
  4. why it infringes your rights, and the steps you took to contact the person who posted it, if you could
  5. a statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not allowed, and a statement that the information is accurate and that you own the rights or act for the owner
  6. your signature, which on the form is your full name typed again

A notice that is incomplete may be slower to handle. Knowingly sending a false notice can be punished under French law (article 6-I-4 of the LCEN).

You can also send it by post to EPI STUDIO, 22 allée du Loiret, 31770 Colomiers, France.

What we do#

We look at every notice. When it is valid we remove or disable the content, or take down the game or version, and tell the person who posted it, including the notice details needed to answer it (your contact details may be shared with them). We tell you what we decided.

Counter notice#

If your content was removed and you think that was a mistake, or you have the rights, send a counter notice from the link on your game page or your account page, with your explanation and any proof of your rights. We pass it to the person who sent the notice. The content comes back 14 days later unless they tell us they have gone to court.

Repeat infringers#

An account with three removals that were never restored can no longer publish games. Accounts that keep infringing are closed.

Minecraft assets#

Moud is not affiliated with Mojang or Microsoft. Use of Minecraft assets in games must follow Minecraft's usage guidelines. Notices from Mojang or Microsoft follow the same procedure.
